Just reread Notes post, Challum. He's actually running a business so he's been advised by his lawyers about this and has it nailed. As to reading the source docs just Google "copyright law", or "digital copyright" or even search these forums using those search words, people have posted good links before. Someone posted a link to actual court cases fairly recently, you should be able to find it. When you do, it's called read it and weep. I read some of the cases and they were based on the musical hooks we all know and love, not just lyrics. If a piece of music has something that is easily identifiable like the guitar intro to Satisfaction, that's part of the copyright too. What got me about those court cases was how well versed the judges were. The written opinions went on and on about classical music theory, harmonic relationships, stuff like that. The writers are obviously well educated music pros.

Hey, Barry no worries I just got out of rehab after having my mouth transplanted for the upteenth time. Seems like every time I get a new one, the thing wants to keep running off...
